Abstract
The Francis scale of attitude towards Christianity Form ASC4B was completed by 935 pupils in years one through five of Roman Catholic maintained secondary schools in Northern Ireland. The data support the reliability, unidimensionality and construct validity of the scale among this population and enable comparisons to be made with previously published data on pupils attending Roman Catholic schools within the state‐maintained sector in England and Scotland.Keywords
